The
kalachakra seed syllable is a complex Buddhist emblem symbolizing the
Kalachakra, or wheel of time. the seven intertwined letters (rendered in Lantsa,
a Buddhist version of Sanskrit used for mantras and sacred texts) represent
the seven words of the kalachakra mantra- "Ham Ksha Ma La Va Ra Ya."
The seven letters, combined with the crescent and full moons and the nada (wisp),
make up the ten elements that give the emblem its name.
